I hope it gets fixed fast though. I have 6 coming in tomorrow.
Thats why we want to test to downgrade the card to RX 470. But we are unable to use the atiwinflash as it says no adapter found.
Ok, i will post a simple way, step by step, maybe someone will find it usefull:
0. Download atiflash ( https://www.techpowerup.com/download/ati-atiflash/ )
1. Use latest gpuz to import bios ( https://www.techpowerup.com/gpuz/ )
2. Use SRB Polaris Bios Editor to open bios ( https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/srbpolaris-v35-bios-editor-for-amd-rx4xx-and-rx5xx-cards-1882656 )
3. Change voltages, frequencies, copy straps, whatever you like. Strap modifier is nice tool, just paste your strap (1750) into the the addres and it will be modified -> http://doreymills.ca/cgi-bin/strapmod?555000000000000022CC1C00AD515A3EC0570E142D4A64080049C700030114207A8900A00300000%3Cspan%20style= (thx Ralph). Paste strap into 2000 field.
4. Save it.
5. Paste atiflash_274 folder into C:\ and put modified rom into it.
6. Press Windows key -> cmd -> run as admin -> cd.. -> enter -> cd.. -> enter -> cd atiflash_274 -> enter -> atiwinflash -i -> enter (it will shoe you your cards) -> atiwinflash -p 0 ElesmereMod.rom -> enter
7.
8. Profit!
It doesn't solve driver's issue.

Weird, yesterday i flashed a few rx570 with custom bios and it worked just fine. Do you use command line or gui?
I did both, but maybe I made a mistake in some step, I don't know, could you please show me how did you flash your modified BIOS? And maybe this is a lot to ask but, could I have your modified BIOS if it works good? Does it solve the driver's issue that doesn't allow to use more than 5 Rx 570?
Thank you in advance

how to flash
For atiwinflash: > atiwinflash -p 0 -f Elesmere470.rom
Use cards that are very similar in design, for example asus strix 470 -> asus strix 570.
To be honest i have no idea if card flashed like that will work properly. On the other side, if you can flash 470 with 570 bios, then 570 with 470 should be possible too.
Don't forget to run Atiwinflash in command line with Administrator rights
Atiwinflash doesn't recognize the 570

It is not possible to flash it with atiwinflash because it doesn't recognize the RX 570, I already tried it

smOS has has a few test builds out now to try to fix the 4g decode issue with the z170 and z270 boards. Might be worth trying those out.

Does anyone has some way?
Do you mean bios mod for 570 or how to flash 570 -> 470?
Yess. Mayby is the resolution for now to fash only 6th card in a rigs to 470 and start to work and then looking for more elegant way?

not working
Fingers Crossed! 
ok Im trying
Guys - lets try to do it if You can (I can't test it because I'm right now out of my working place next 3 days...
SOLUTION from BuriedOne: Well that sometimes happens as cause of the drivers, but try to install them in this way: uninstall all drivers for the cards with amd clean install, after that add two cards and install the driver. After that, pull out all cards and add the next two, start it up and wait for the drivers to install automaticaly (it will flash the screen for about 5 minutes). Repeat this for the next two, after that turn it off and add all cards. This should work!
